_________________________

In this remake of the arcade game Pooyan from the early '80s, you play the role of a pig, protecting its piglets from wolves. 

The first screen takes place near the pigs' home. Mrs. Pig rides up and down in a cable car, shooting at wolves, who are riding balloons downward, towards the ground. If the wolves land safely on the ground, then they can climb a ladder, near the cable-car, and catch Mrs. Pig. But if she shoots their balloons, they splat on the ground instead.

The wolves shoot acorns at the pig. But Mrs. Pig has a food based weapon too. If she gets to the top, she can get meat, to toss at the wolves and make them jump off their balloons in pursuit. Each wolf taken out this way is worth bonus points (on a doubling scheme: 400, 800 1600...)

The second scene takes place at the wolves lair. Here the wolves have reinforced balloons--it takes multiple hits to make them fall. Here they float upwards toward a big rock, which they push on top of Mrs. Pig, when seven wolves are present. Additionally, an alpha wolf (wolf leader) appears and summons wolves in packs.

Description from the packaging:

Bring all of the excitement and fun of Pooyan into your home! Experience the colorful hi-res graphics, fast action, and arcade-style play on your own computer.
It's a game of quick reflexes and fast thinking as you battle a pack of vicious, hungry wolves in order to protect your helpless piglets roaming the forest.

Your weapon at hand is a bow-and-arrow. And in your despair you toss chunks of meat at your enemy hoping to lure him out of battle while you catch your breath!
The wolves don't give up easily and you won't either! Once you play this game you can't put it away!
Clinging to air-filled balloons, the wolves travel up and down the forest valley as you glide up and down in your tram car. As they hurl objects at you, you must fight them off with your arrows and meat. Pop their balloons and look out below! But don't let too many wolves escape your arrows because they're planning to push a giant rock- aimed right at you!- over the cliff.
